First thing I'll say, first thing I thought was that it indeed was a foul ball. As did the commentators. When the camera went to the behind the plate view is when you saw it wasn't. But, cut the ump some slack. He's got it harder than the players. It's enough for him to be in control of the game at all times. But I'd like to see y'all call those calls with the pitches coming 95+. Now imagine it when literally everybody in the place hates you. I'm just saying, that's a hard job and he's the only one doing something every pitch of the game. We also don't know if there were things said prior to that at-bat. And frick it, once the game is over, it's over. And that means both parties, the umps and the players. He should've handled it better.

I do not see the blown call as that bad, it happens. My gripe is the way he acted like a jackass after the game. A lot of umps just like getting into the faces of players/managers.
